Ballistic Zen Collectable Map

Table of Contents

World Map and Introduction

World map

Ballistic Zen has 3 types of collectables:

In this guide, under the section of each region, there is a table that contains IDs of collectables as they are saved in the save file (Saved column). This is how you can track your progress:

  1. Find the save directory:

    • Windows:
      Open Run dialogue with Win+R and paste:

      "%APPDATA%\..\LocalLow\footnotesforthefuture\Ballistic Zen"

    • Linux:

      1. Go to the Steam library directory where the game is installed
      2. Navigate to:

        steamapps/compatdata/1966930/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/LocalLow/footnotesforthefuture/Ballistic Zen

  2. Edit the save file saveData.dat

  3. Scroll down to the "collected" section, which should look like this:
    "collected": [
        {
            "Key": 478786,
            "Value": true
        },
        {
            "Key": 441597,
            "Value": true
        },
        {
            ...
        },
    ]
    
    Each "Key" with "Value" equal to true is an unlocked collectable.

Considering there is no convenient way to know what collectables have not been obtained, one way to determine that is by copying each ID in the Saved column of each table; if searching for it in the save file yields nothing, note it down, and repeat until you reach the final ID.

Get a running start on the ramp

Continue along and launch yourself up the following ramp

Jump on the last ramp, but jump off as late as possible!

Wallrun along the wall to the left, but get on its side at the peak of your jump

If you manage to jump across to this wall, make sure to...

...immediately wallrun around to stay as high as possible, and keep your momentum!

If you manage to get here, climb to the taller part of the structure

There's your collectable.

Jump on the second ramp and leave as late as possible

Wallrun on the straight bit of the wall...

If you're high enough, jump off and climb up; if not, repeat the 180s

Almost there...

Sweet, sweet respect.

Save file IDs

Collectable IDs in the save file are generated using this function within the game:

Mathf.RoundToInt(transform.position.Horizontal().magnitude * 1000);

In math:

Round(1000 *(Root(X^2 + Z^2)))

In awk (error: 411644 is not rounded properly due to double precision rounding of 411643.49):

{printf ("%.0f", 1000 *(sqrt($5^2 + $7^2)))}

Region names

Note: All regions start with main-; the collectable in base region is at the end of the game on Pyramid

Final name Internal name
Residential District residential
Financial District financial
Entertainment District construction
Shrouded District fogged
Pyramid pyramid
Border Walls base

Generating SVG

This was accomplished using awk. Note that the final map file had number positions manually adjusted to avoid overlapping text; achieved with Inkscape.
